Should we include unpadded piece retrieval in this FRC. This would help reducing number of bytes needed to be downloaded to verify the integrity as the downloader can can do the padding locally when checking commp. |

We have had a protocol that has been offered by Boost for a while, and has been used by several of the FIL+ deal making programs. This is for a piece gateway - an HTTP endpoint exposed on SPs allowing retrieval of a full piece of data.
The full semantics of this gateway protocol have not been fully specified. It seems useful to codify them at a specification level, rather than point to a single implementation.
To that end, I'm proposing an FRC defining what we mean by a piece gateway.
I put together a first pass as #709 . It parallels in many ways the block gateway used by IPFS in structure, and expected HTTP semantics.
